Little Hospitals || Drabble (short)
Sapphire had been found, broken, bloodied and unconscious. The caring citizen took her straight to the nearest hospital. She was taken into ICU straight away and wired up to heart monitors and drips, her body was fragile and she was being tormented silently in her head of the cries from the past.Â
Her breathing was raspy and crackled, ribs broken and one punctured her right lung. She went off for X-ray's, her left arm was fractured but to the doctors it was strangely healing already, her legs were just badly bruised, the main problem was her lung. They decided to release the excess air in her chest and then operate. All of which went okay, par the fact her body wasn't one to be cut open and such. Her organs being slightly different and her natural internal temperature high they thought she had further problems.Â
After the procedure she was put in a room by herself, which had been left cool. Considering she had no possessions or id the doctors and nurses had no way of finding her next of kin or family. Which of course was going to be a problem.
Sapphire spent a few days there in a what a human would call a coma, but it was simply her body healing itself. It was the way her defenses worked too whilst she was hiding, and throughout it all Sapphire could only hope Nick was okay. Â
Still laying in the same bed, in the same room, she lies silent, body slowly healing. 'miraculously' as the doctors had stated.Â
